Other medical devices—If you use any other personal
medical device, consult the manufacturer of the
device to determine if it is adequately shielded from
external RF energy. Your physician may be able to
help you obtain this information.
In health care facilities—Turn your phone off in health
care facilities when instructed. Hospitals and health
care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive
to external RF energy.
Potentially unsafe areas
Posted facilities—Turn your phone off in any facility
when posted notices require you to do so.
Aircraft—FCC regulations prohibit using your phone on
a plane that is in the air. Turn your phone off or switch
it to Airplane Mode before boarding aircraft.
Vehicles—RF signals may affect improperly installed
or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor
vehicles. Check with the manufacturer of the device
to determine if it is adequately shielded from external
RF energy.
Blasting areas—Turn off your phone where blasting is in
progress. Observe restrictions, and follow any
regulations or rules.
Potentially explosive atmospheres—Turn off your phone
when you are in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere. Obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in
such areas could cause an explosion or fire, resulting
in bodily injury or death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are
often, but not always, clearly marked. They include:
• fueling areas such as gas stations
• below deck on boats
• transfer or storage facilities for fuel or chemicals
• vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas, such as
propane or butane
• areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders
• any other area where you would normally be
advised to turn off your vehicle engine
Use with care
Use only in normal position (to ear). Avoid dropping,
hitting, bending, or sitting on the phone.
Keep phone dry
If the phone gets wet, turn the power off immediately
and contact your dealer. Water damage may not be
covered under warranty.
Resetting the phone
If the screen seems frozen and the keypad does not
respond to keypresses, reset the phone by completing
the following steps:
1. Remove the battery door.
2. Remove and replace the battery.
If the problem persists, return the phone to the dealer
for service.
Accessories
Use only Kyocera-approved accessories with Kyocera
phones. Use of any unauthorized accessories may be
dangerous and will invalidate the phone warranty if said
accessories cause damage or a defect to the phone.
Radio Frequency (RF) energy
Your telephone is a radio transmitter and receiver. When
it is on, it receives and sends out RF energy. Virgin
Mobile’s network controls the power of the RF signal.
This power level can range from 0.006 to 0.6 watts.
In August 1996, the U.S. Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines
with safety levels for hand-held wireless phones.
These guidelines are consistent with the safety
standards previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies in the following reports:
• ANSI C95.1 (American National Standards
Institute, 1992)
• NCRP Report 86 (National Council on Radiation
Protection and Measurements, 1986)
• ICNIRP (International Commission on
Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection, 1996)
